PRINTABLE PDF - Dialogue with the Stars
From the Artist: This painting was inspired by the lyrics of "Dialogue with the Stars" by Vintersorg. My efforts to explain would seem paltry compared to the elegance of the lyrics so I will let them speak for me.
Ardent stars shine upon my face,
the monumental night sky reveals its torches.
Unaltered for eons, yet zestful they’re flaming
like ornamental diamonds.
In my telescopes focus, a striding light
conjure me fixedly.
Oh, what a colorful drama,
what a theatrical performance.
These myriads of stars
enchants me with their oddity.
At cosmos entrance hall,
where time and space units in a charade.
Under crimson flares I watch
the tempest of the universe.
In dark artistry,
I lionize the splendorous glare.
An unearthly voice of euphony
express itself in an ancient tongue.
Its elocution is based on silence,
so it pulsates through the five senses.
It’s like a poem of wisdom and wizardry
navigating through the world.
A legacy from nebulas,
an endless mystic conversation.
These myriads of stars
enchants me with their oddity.
At cosmos entrance hall,
where time and space units in a charade.
Under crimson flares I watch
the tempest of the universe.
In dark artistry,
I lionize the splendorous glare.
Now clouds gather at a distant skyline
to cover the firmament.
Rays are fading in a metamorphosis
of the blazing weave above.
These myriads of stars
enchants me with their oddity.
At cosmos entrance hall,
where time and space units in a charade.
Under crimson flares I watch
the tempest of the universe.
In dark artistry,
I lionize the splendorous glare.
26 years have passed since it first
called my name.
And when I’m dead, this piece of
jewelry will still remain.
–Vintersorg

Silver Lining by Jess Wathen
• SUSPENDED •
"Every cloud has a silver lining." I suppose that may apply to any subject with a good backlight such as this fox. Foxes can be sneaky, mischievous creatures though they'll eventually come to light. Even the worst events or situations have some positive aspects and beauty. You should never feel hopeless because difficult times always lead to better days.

Liberty's Light by Rod Chase
From the Artist:
As a photorealist painter, I am dependent on finding accurate reference materials for each painting. It is not always easy, but I've found the National Archives to be a treasure trove - especially for early photos of Washington. I especially enjoyed working out how to feature the gas lights. Although the Capitol dome was lighted by electricity in 1919, the lamps outside were gas, giving the whole scene a misty, moody glow.

Justice for All by Rod Chase
From the Artist:
In preparing to paint this piece, the artist traveled to Washington, D. C., and visited the Supreme Court both in the morning and at twilight to study the detailing in the structure, the color of the building and its surroundings and to take detailed photographs of the area. Chase uses acrylics on canvas, often backing the canvas with a board. Unlike most artists who block in color and rework the painting time after time, Chase completes each section of the painting before moving on to the next. Although he works almost exclusively from photographs, he takes artistic license by moving trees, branches or lights to enhance the composition as a whole. The snow in the foreground of this painting is simply amazing - crunchy and crystalline - and reminds Chase of his boyhood in Canada, where snow like this was a constant companion.

America's Home by Rod Chase
From the Artist:
Artist Rod Chase pored over hundreds of old photographs at the National Archives in order to locate the background materials required for "America's Home." As a result of this due diligence, "America's Home" elegantly reflects the White House of yesteryear, making it an exquisite addition to the artist's "Foundation of Freedom" series.
